6/3/26 Popped in…read moreyesterday before heading back to the room. Nice location on the corner.. inside the hotel lobby.. A little less merchandise inside.. Went with the iced macchiato.. Could not find this specific location... so had to creat a new one.

listed as a "starbucks reserve," even though i'm pretty sure it quietly lost that designation a…read morecouple of years ago and it hasn't been updated to reflect this. the location at 700 west pender still has that oversized flagship feel though, soaring black ceilings, warm walnut toned wood, polished concrete floors, and an entire wall of floor to ceiling windows flooding the space with natural light. the place was busy, packed with laptop campers, people catching up over coffee, and a crowd lingering near the pickup counter waiting for drinks to appear. hanging above the seating area is this big piece of driftwood that looks like it was pulled straight off the bc coastline. twisted grain, cracked texture, sun bleached edges, very 'west coast wilderness'. towards the back there's also a giant mural mixing floral illustrations with an old sepia toned starbucks storefront scene. the whole space feels oddly nostalgic, like starbucks trying to remind everyone it used to be a small neighbourhood coffee shop. i stopped by around 2:30 pm on a tuesday hoping to check out the starbucks x miffy collab merch that's been all over social media, only to find out everything had sold out by 7:00 am. all four items gone. apparently hardcore miffy fans had been lining up around 4:00 am at different locations, so realistically i never stood a chance. ended up trying the new grande iced mango cream matcha with oat milk instead, which took about 15 minutes to come out, and unfortunately the drink itself didn't really win me over either. the matcha had a slightly bitter finish, while the mango leaned oddly sweet in a way that reminded me a bit of medicine. definitely not something i'd order again -- i'd still choose one of their strawberry cold foam drinks over this any day.

Went here during the middle of the night searching for allergy medicine and luckily for me they had…read moresome! The only packs they have though is a 3 pill pack which doesn't help much for me since its allergy season. The service was good nothing really to complain about except I wish the cashier smiled more and acted like he wanted to be there. The subway here is amazing always gets my food right and the staff here is very friendly. And it's so close to my neighbourhood too! I told the server that I love spicy foods and she suggested I try their Sriracha sauce and it was the best thing I've ever tried! (I had it on the spicy Italian on regular Italian). If you live in the fleetwood/guildford area this is the location to go to :)

I never won a lonterry ticket. Also te food looks gross but they prices are out of this world.read more

The drinks are pretty standard here, but what's been problematic is the fact that their gift card…read morereader has been down for the better part of the summer. When I came in weeks ago, they told me it was down and that it was going to be fixed. Went back a few days ago, and the same old spiel. Why would anyone bother buying gift cards to Booster Juice if they can never be used?! Old management would have dealt with this problem in a timely manner! Disappointing.

I come to this Booster Juice quite often, but its only for smoothies. The smoothies are great and…read morethe portions are generous. The staff are friendly too. I love how the manager offers an extra free booster if you bring a personal cup... unfortunately, he may have forgotten to tell the staff about that before they started working. I normally have a "Very Berry" here with a wilderness and combo booster. If you've never had booster juice smoothies, I strongly recommend that you do ASAP.

This location is good because it gives me access to Mink Chocolate without having to go downtown…read more You don't have to worry about the parking out front as the factory is located in an industrial area. You won't miss it either as there is large signage out front. I went around mid-day during the week so the cafe was actually quite quiet. I came here to buy some of their chocolate bars around the holidays to give as stocking stuffers. While they didn't advertise any deals for purchasing multiples of their chocolate bars, the store associate gave me a deal as I had bought around 10 bars (one free bar). The store associate was also very friendly and offered great service as I had some questions about sending chocolate out of province to Alberta and she offered some guidance on mailing cut-off times for out-of-province deliveries during the holidays. I would consider coming here again to get more chocolate in the future.

New location in South Vancouver! I have been to the South Surrey location and love that place. I…read moreknow there is (was?) a location in downtown Vancouver but love they open one here as downtown is probably much more busy and probably no free parking around there. This is like a factory cafe kind of location. Very quiet still since probably not many people know about here yet. Only 2 tables here. It's enough for this location as probably it's for the area as there's no walking traffic or maybe people do take out here. Ordered a large Americano to share and attendant was kind enough to split it into two cups. The Americano tasted pretty good. Mink sells their own brand of chocolate, so they include a nice piece of chocolate with each coffee. There's a few parking spots in front of the cafe. I'm writing this review in hopes that this place can get a little more customers so that they can stay open since it's so quiet in this location which happens to be located in the rear of the building (don't know if there is anything in the front). Drive in is the one just east of Ontario St.

Gourmet Cup in Lynn Valley Mall. What can I say except RUDE!!! Definitely a place where they do not…read morewant to keep customers happy with simple things. I order a large ice coffee and when I get it it tastes like 90% water and 10% coffee. I asked if she could dump half out and add more coffee. She takes it and literally adds about 1tablespoon more hot coffee and says "here" (having the worst attitude and huffing and puffing about it) Then I say UM actually that's not going to solve the problem. Can you just pour me a hot coffee and I will give you this coffee flavoured water back? She pours a cup and abruptly slides it to me and says $2.95 LOL I say NO and she glares at me and then sighs!! I had to ask for sugar because it was empty and she ignored me a then eventually snatched it out of my hand to fill it. I would have been happy with packets, but there were none of those out either.

Friendly staff, great coffee and plenty of seating. A terrific little neighbourhood coffee shop…read morethat will be greatly missed by its many regular long-time customers.
